VC-10 was so great. Landed like a feather.Some of this was the 80s

[@DannoAviation]

Timeless footage… could watch this all day

[@chrisnizer5702]

Wish these vintage videos had sound. Those classic turbojets sounded great, very few videos with sound exist these days unfortunately.

God , brings back so many memories thanks.

Excellent piece of LHR history, and just how I remember it. Even the control tower has gone in the background. Thanks for sharing.

as a child I flew on a Trident 2 - I'm fairly sure some of the seats faced backwards like on a train.

[@GeorgeMCMLIX]

They did indeed 👍🏻 The BAC 1-11 had similar seating, giving better access around the over-wing emergency exits.

@@GeorgeMCMLIX BAC 1-11 was the first plane I ever went on. That was before I got scared of flying!

Great film from the days when I worked there. Caption says 'Take Off' but the planes were all landing.

[@UAL320]

Looks like the trailing link main gear on the VC-10 made for soft landings. The 777 is the same way.

Cool Classic Jets👍

[@EricIrl]

Slightly all over the place from a chronological point of view but nice shots all the same. I particularly liked the images which showed the hangars under construction in the background. I guess that was around 1968 or so.

[@ELcinegatto87]

Thanks for these. Shame all of your videos are sped up a bit playback rate wise and digitized to 25fps PAL instead of the standard 24fps for film. Is your for purchase library like this as well or only the KZbin videos?

[@johannesbols57]

Do aircraft land more slowly than they did then?

[@Robert_N]

Even McDonald's burgers tasted better in the 70s.
